Back when I was a young lad, so long ago that my mind is hazy, when you wore the number 10 on your back it meant something. It was like saying "I am the most skillful, the most technical player on this team". The number 10 was the player that made the game, that split defences, the guy you had to watch out for. Pelkas is not that yet. He has glimpses, but I haven't seen him do it for an entire game. He drifts in and out of the play. If he can do the job, fine, go prove it, because right now he's just another talent. I'm not saying PAOK shouldn't keep him, I'm just saying he's not really a 100% starter yet.

Gotta say I also think it's risky to let both Tziolis and Kace go. Out of the two, I'd keep Tziolis (yes Reaper, really!!) because I think Kace is done with PAOK emotionally. He's wanted out for a while now. Having said that maybe Tziolis was told he's not a first team starter and he wants to go ? Who knows. What I've never liked about PAOK is how we too often part with players on less than ideal terms. If you don't need Tziolis, tell him from the beginning of the pre-season, not now where the transfer window is closing. Call him what you will as a player, he's been a decent club man and to me that counts for something. Anyway, let's see how it all unfolds.

Don't be like that. Meli is a good guy.

Well I just hope the league is somewhat competitive. It'd be nice to have it not effectively over by round 15. That's just boring.

We need all 3 Greek teams to win for the co-efficient points. The only team that has any excuse to not get a win is maybe PAO who have the tougher gig away from home. Olympiakos and PAOK must win, end of story.

If that's true, that's a pretty big deal.

Bring on the UEFA co-efficient points. Every little bit is required.

I'm not sure about Campos's fitness. He's been very flat today. And there is the 3rd goal by Pereyra. Bravo. Give Ivic something to think about.

Ama pia re Rodrigues.

Seriously, don't let them shoot like that! It's asking for trouble.

lol. Did you bet for a straight win, or something else ? What were the odds ?

They have both been poor. Campos has been especially quiet. Did Pereyra bed Ivic's wife ? What does he have to do to get a run ?

We should probably be playing with a number 10. Don't really need 3 in the middle with such poor opposition but I can understand why Ivic is playing it safe. Regardless, we're not playing shocking, but not well either.

Sometimes, with Rodrigues, I wonder if there is anything upstairs.

Terrible miss. Could have killed the game off there.

Shhhh, the AEK supporters will get upset.

Campos with a shot that almost reached the stratosphere.

Half time change. In: Canas Out: Charisis.

Overall a poor game. More like a friendly really. They were definitely all over us in the first 20 minutes or so but the goal we scored from the set piece really took the wind out of them.

Yeah, I'm here to do all the heavy lifting. Fingers crossed the link stays active.

Found this one. http://www.vipbox.nu/football/408153/1/dinamo-tbilisi-(geo)-vs-paok-(gre)-live-stream-online.html

That's the 2nd goal we've scored from a corner in 3 competitive games.

I think I saw goal somewhere through the ads. Not sure lol.

Ha ha. One is almost covered with ads, and the other freezes constantly. Of more significance, what has my life come to when I'm doing this at 2am in the morning.
